Little did you know you were a mere 12 miles from a gas station that has 93 and 101 on tap, and its a shell station to. Btw, austin to moore in 4.5 is scootin. It takes me a little over 2 hours normally if I go the speed limit and dont hit traffic just to get to dallas.

again your car will not know the difference.

You car has a computer, and it should pull timing, if it detonates, that's what those sensors are for.

Regardless all you had to was ask anyone, they all know where the good **** is, and it's not hard to find. OKC has some serious Mexico racing.

93 octane would be nice to have at every pump instead of 1 or 2 for 4$+ a gallon. Most of the boosted guy's run E85 as that is cheaper and more pumps.

Yes oklahoma roads suck and we don't have 93 octane for the most part. Sounds like a shithole to me!...
